Romantic Poet Sweater
May I present... The Lace Circular Sweater! Ta-Ta-Da!
The sweater, as modelled by my couch. I was kinda going for a romantic, lacy 19th century poet sort of look.
Close up of the seafoam pattern on the body of the sweater and the laddered rib I used on the cuffs and collar.
This was a lot slower going than I thought it would be. Obviously, trying to work out the math as you go takes some time. But I never imagined all those YO wraps would take so long! Sheesh!
As soon as I can get someone to hold the camera, I will post pix of me wearing the sweater. It fits nicely, and I think it will be a great thing to slip on over a shell or a sleeveless dress.

OH.
MY.
GOD.
This is fantastic. Seafoam lace RULES.
And you were right about Squarey. This morning I found him rooting around in the trash muttering something about how "these damn rectangles taking over". I think he was talking about all the cereal boxes.
He got lumpier and lumpier as the night wore on...it was quite sad.
That sweater is lovely. I have yet to attempt any lacy items, so I am quite impressed!
